GRAB A COPY TODAY. EXCLUSIVE!
Will CGRC go to an election this year or not? Councillors don't necessarily have to vote to employ an organisation to help hold it which may mean that CGRC will be operating outside of the local government act and there may be no election. This month's meeting will decide on whether or not there will be an election. The Times' and the community get the feeling that if it was for the original Councils there wouldn't be a problem, however, CGRC Councillors appear to be fed up with the treatment and the feet dragging by the local government minister and the man who the buck stops with, Premier Chris Minns.

Reiland Taboo T81 will be among the 35 bulls to be offered at the Reiland Angus May 21 sale, 11am.

With beef industry analysts forecasting a profit lift of 35 to 40 per cent for quality beef, Reiland Angus is set to offer an especially selected line of 35 bulls on Tuesday, May 21.
Reiland Angus co-principal Mark Lucas said there was a strong future for international beef demand as 2025 approached.
“Such a forecast makes decisions made now for breeding herd genetics important so producers can optimize this forecast industry uplift,” Mr Lucas said.
With the sale to be held at Killimicat Station, Tumut, more than 60 per cent of the catalogue on May 21 is suitable for heifer joinings across all breeds.
“The offering highlights the Reiland Angus focus of easy care, high growth and superior carcase traits of eye muscle and marbling,” Mr Lucas said.
“The Lucas family has responded to clients who prefer to purchase bulls in a stress free, flexible environment via the buyer favoured Helmsman system.
“All bulls are delivered free of charge by Reiland Angus. Numerous bulls on offer post top level EBV’s (estimated breeding values) for calving ease and low birthweight.”
All bulls offered have been vet checked for breeding soundness by Holbrook Veterinary Centre to assure buyer confidence in a two-year structural guarantee.

Any enquiries contact Michael Glasser, Elders, on 0403 526 702;
Mark Lucas on 0428 693 585 or Sam Lucas on 0402 450 686.
